  • Choose from a morning or afternoon snorkelling cruise
  • Chance to swim off Thodorou island
  • Opportunity to spot a sunken WWII fighter aircraft
What to expect

The calm, warm waters off Chania are ideal for snorkeling. So much so that either of these options is a must-do. Choose between a morning or an afternoon of underwater exploration in the Aegean. Both trips feature a swim stop by Thodorou Island and a chance to see a sunken WWII plane.

Sailing out of Platanias, we'll head towards Thodorou Island – famed for its rare kri kri goats. Dropping anchor, there's plenty of time to sunbathe and swim here before cruising on to our next stop – the wreck of a sunken German air force plane from World War II.

This Luftwaffe fighter aircraft was shot down in 1941 during the Battle of Crete and is now one of the most fascinating dive spots in Europe. And with the choice of a morning or afternoon trip, you can take in the beauty of the unspoiled Cretan coast from two different perspectives.

Rethymno daytrip from Matala and Agia Galini

Rethymno daytrip from Matala and Agia Galini

Rethymno lies pinched between the Mediterranean Sea and the foothills of the White Mountains on Crete's northern coast, and if its history doesn't have you making a beeline for it, its looks will. Its reputation as one of Greece's most beautiful towns is well deserved. You'll get some top tips from the guide on your bus to Rethymno, but after drop-off, the full day is yours to explore. Wander through a honeycomb of cobbled alleyways, find the three-lion-headed Rimondi Fountain in the heart of the old town and keep an eye out for the scattering of domes and minarets which hint at the town's Ottoman influence. But no visit to Rethymno is complete without visiting the harbour, then climbing the Paleokastro Hill to look out to sea from the Venetian Fortress – the pride of the town.
